Google — today — extended its Google Play edition program to Android tablets by unveiling the GPe variants of the Sony Xperia Z Ultra and the LG G Pad 8.3. Both the devices are already up for sale in the United States Play Store with shipping times of 1-2 days. 

A minor but very useful feature that Google has introduced in Android 4.4 KitKat is screen recording. While the feature can only be used via ADB on the stock KitKat ROM, it was only a matter of time before some custom ROMs and apps provided the same functionality to root users.

The CyanogenMod team, today, is releasing their Screencast app on the Play Store using the beta channel, which allows users to easily record the content on their device screen and as well as their voice via the microphone.

Google has started rolling out the Android 4.4.2 update for all the Nexus devices, fixing the flash SMS bug that was reported last week. The update comes less than a week after the company started rolling out the Android 4.4.1 update that greatly improved the Nexus 5 camera performance. 

The Moto G has revolutionised the lower-end smartphone market. The handset packs in such a brilliant package of specs and software that it manages to make the Nexus 5 from Google look somewhat overpriced.

Unlike the Moto X, the Moto G comes with a bootloader that can be easily unlocked, making the process of rooting the handset relatively easy. 

Earlier today, Google started rolling out the Android 4.4.1 update for the Nexus 5 and other devices from the Nexus series. While the Android 4.4.1 update is mainly aimed at improving the camera performance of the Nexus 5, there are still a lot of changes and bug-fixes for all the other devices that makes the update worth it.
